Nepal, 2017

“Three weeks of trekking through the beautiful villages of the Everest region, connecting with locals, eating healthy meals and testing our physical limits has refreshed my spirit and given me the strength to face impending fatherhood with a full heart and clear head! Tanner & Kolena at Travel Life Adventures delivered on all of their promises and our guide, Karma Sherpa, has an amazing team of family and employees that made our stay and our summit push truly unforgettable. We learned basic Sherpa phrases, ran across other trekkers and mountaineers from Europe, America, Australia and shared meals with our team of guides and porters. I can’t think of a better way to inject money into a visually stunning but economically struggling Country. I felt so comfortable with Karma’s vast climbing knowledge and wouldn’t have made it to the summit of Island Peak without his care, support and enthusiasm. Karma’s commitment to supporting his community and employees is inspiring and I look forward to sending more resources to help bring electricity and school books to the village of Sibuje. My wife and I plan to bring our little boy to visit Karma and his family in Nepal with Travel Life Adventures as soon as his little feet can carry him down the trails!”

“Great Trip! Travelling with Tanner and Kolena at Travel Life Adventures changed my perspective on travel. It was amazing to combine mountain climbing in such a beautiful area with a connection with the locals that can’t replicated elsewhere. Very unique and worthwhile. Our guide, Karma, is one of a kind, warm, welcoming and skilled. He was always there to make sure we knew what was going on and to help us when in need.”

“This is definitely one of the best trips that I have been on. Not only did I get to trek through monkey-filled jungles, lush farmland, and up steep mountainsides to get amazing views of Nepal’s misty valleys and snowy peaks, I also got to experience the local culture. We visited monasteries and had the opportunity to stay in a traditional Sherpa house. We were served traditional Sherpa food and had home-churned butter tea, which was a bit rich for me, but it was fun to see it being made. Our guide, Karma’s passion and drive for his people are really inspiring and it made me feel good that my trip was helping to fund these projects. This trip opened my eyes to how responsible and sustainable tourism can greatly impact the local economy and that it’s important to choose a company that supports these values. I highly recommend Travel Life Adventures to plan your next trip! They have close connections to the local guides and will make sure your money goes to support local projects. And of course they will make sure you will have a memorable adventure!”
